Heartfelt thanks to JJ

Post by AusTxPony »

Well if anyone still believes June Jones isn't worth his salary, they are crazy! As of today we are in the conversation for at least 3 BCS Conferences. Whether we get in is up to them. SMU, thanks to June Jones and Orsini and others, has done its job and make us relevant again. "SMU is back", according to CBS Sportcasters after June's first "signature win". And look at recruiting, we are now in the Top 50 maybe 3 years running. Thanks, June Jones. Can you remember three years ago, we would not have been considered at all. And even if we don't make BCS this round, we may be included in the next one when they move to 16 team leagues. We are one of the Top Six in our conference and we may well win it with a little luck. So thanks again, June, for being the Human Being you are and for your talent coaching football. I am so proud to call you our Coach. And a special thanks to the kids for make our and their dreams come true.

Make sure you thank Patterson as well for the help he has provided SMU over the years.

Don't worry, I texted him and left a couple voicemails for him

I completely associate myself with your remarks. When I saw people complaining on this board about playcalling decisions when we beat Memphis 42-0, I knew that SMU was back. Expectations are higher because we are in a much better place. Thanks to SMU, the Circle of Champions, Steve Orsini, and June Jones, his family, and his staff.
